Yes, I think there's already a topic on this but those are from a really long time ago. As you all know Marc Emery (the prince of pot) ran for Mayor of Vancouver in 1996 and ever since he's been fighting for legalization for marajuana in Canada. And he owns his very own shop in Vancouver with a vapour lounge in it.
http://cannabisculture.com/articles/5310.html The link above shows you that on Nov 15th 2008 Cannabis Activists are getting elected all across BC. I live in Vancouver and I'm a huge supporter of Marc Emery. Im so glad that he is still fighting for legalization. I've been to his shop many times before and I've met Marc Emery himself there. He's a really nice guy and I think with time marajuana will be legal here. What do you guys think of legalizing marajuana?
Reason for edit: It's "marijuana," not "marajuana."

QUOTE(Lariat @ Nov 18 2008, 09:25 PM)  What are the benefits of legalizing marijuana? So who ever wants to can get high off their mind? Actually, Marijuana has been documented to have some theriputic effect, for patients with glaucoma, and for those dealing with the pain of Chemotherapy, or wieght loss associated with HIV/AIDS. It can have positve effect, just like cough syrup, for some people, and for that reason, I think it should be legalized and taxed. The tax money could then be used to fund research, and detoxification and intervention. It 'can' be useful, but, most folks don't want to even consider legalization, for fear of setting a dangerous precedent. Seems rather narrow minded to me. Feel free to actually read a study on the effects of marijuana use, it could be a great help, but, without actually considering it, it isn't even being put up for discussion. |
